Find What You're Already Sitting On
Before every flight, a pilot walks around the plane and checks what's actually there. This free live session is that same walk-around for your business: the money, skills and connections you already have, or could build quickly, to start or grow something of your own.

You Probably Have More to Work With
Than You Think
Most people put off starting something, or growing what they have, because they think they need more first:
more money, more skills, more connections.
So they wait.
Meanwhile, much of what they need is already sitting in their records,
their everyday skills and the people they already know.
They just haven't counted it.
Take Stock Before You Go Looking for More
When I was earning my pilot's license, I learned you never just climb in and take off. You walk around the plane first and check what's actually there, not what you assume is there.
In this live session we'll do that walk-around for your business, working through the Hidden Resources Walk-Around Worksheet together, one section at a time. You'll have a few quiet minutes in each section to fill it in, so you leave with something on paper, not just ideas.
The thread running through it is my dad's fruitcake business. He ran it alongside his day job for decades and kept it going into retirement, with one order a year, customers he already knew and a bakery that did all the baking. Almost everything it needed, he already had.
What You'll Learn
Where your money is hiding, including the records that show what people will actually buy
Which everyday skills people already ask you for, and would pay for
Who's already in your corner: three people who'd buy from you, and partners you don't have to build
Which resources you could develop quickly, instead of waiting until you have everything
How to size your first step to fit your life
You'll leave with a filled-in worksheet and one action for this week.
Who it's for
Side hustlers getting started, business owners looking for their next move, and people nearing or in retirement who want to put a career's worth of skills to work on their own terms.
Stay after the session for Q&A and to meet the other business owners in the group.
Who's Teaching This?
Don Bishop started his first business in high school: an electronics repair partnership with his best friend, launched with about $20 of business cards.
In the 40+ years since, he has built and run businesses across several industries, from PC rental to web development to youth sports fundraising, and served 24 years as an elected township supervisor.
He earned his private pilot, license many years ago -- which is where the walk-around habit comes from.
He's the founder of Business Heroes Network.
His view hasn't changed: not every business needs to scale. The best business is the one that works for you.
